THE DWELLERS IN TENTS.

The EAGLE called attention in the early
spring to the fact that tenement houses would
be in greater demand than there were houses
to supply, when the spring emigration should
be at full tide. We recommended some Of
our capitalists to invest some of their money
in tenement houses Some of them who were
induced to investigate the matter became
convinced the building of house would not
emily prevent much inconvenience on the part
of newcomers, but that it would be
a paying investment. Acting on this
belief hundreds of houses have
been built up to this time with view on the
part of the builders that such houses would
rent for price that would pay a good in
terest on the investment, or sell for a good
per cent over and above their first cost.
Time has vindicated the soundness of this
position. Every house erected in this city
has not only been sold at fair price or
rented at figures whichit would seem must
pay an enormous per cent on the investment
but very many people coming here have
been unable to secure houses in which to
live. All along the big river on the
West side, and up toward Cen
trail avenue on this side, and
in the timber along Chisholm creek in the
southeast part Of the city are rows Of tents
and hundreds Of people living in them, who
are unable to get houses in which to live.
Should building operations be delayed on
account of scarcity Of material, or the ina
bility of the railroads to furnish it as fast as
required, these people will be put to consid
cradle Inconvenience, as the ground along
the streams where many of them are camped
is low and liable to overflow when the June
rise in the river shall have come We hope
there will be no delay in building. in order
that these people may all be accommodated
with good houses

THE GOLD MEDAL TODAY.

The second annual shoot of the Forest City
Gun Club of the city, commenced yesterday
at the old Riverside Park. There was a
large number present, and as can be seen
from the scores made a number of them
came very near approaching experts in that
line.
Today promises to be the most interesting
day in the history of the club. They will
shoot for the gold medal, and the fact that
q number of gentlemen in the club who
score well makes the contest looked upon
with considerable interest. Some of those
less hopeful of winning the medal seem dis
posed to bet on certain ones who they be-
leve will be successful AS in most similar
circumstances it is not difficult
task to find man who will put up and the
first soon finds his money in the hands of the
third man. No admittance charge is made
and all are invited to attend today. The
shooting commences at 9 o'clock this morn
ing and will continue until late in the after
noon.
AS is known, the club was organized some
months ago by Messrs. S. w. Griffin and E.
T. Brown, who had been members of good
cubs east. 1t is the intention to make an
effort to secure the shooting tournament Of
the state for Wichita. That question will
of the club say they will shoot with any club
in the state and are anxious for the little
contest

MERCHANTS ASSOCIATION.

In answer to a call issued in yesterday 8
EAGLE, goodly number of business men
met at the City Hall last evening to perfect
an organization showing as its prime object
the protection of merchants against persons
unworthy of credit. Much interest was
manifested in the meeting and the plans
presented were discussed at length, there be-
ing no dissenting voice as to the need Of
such an organization and as to the merit Of
the plans proposed. Officers were elected
and the move put into permanent shape;
committees being appointed to formulate q
constitution and when this is done to get the
merchants of the city to become members Of
the association. A nominal initiation fec
was decided upon and the entire expenses
will be such as to be within the reach of all
the business men of the city, as it is intended
to include all the members of every business
represented.
A number of the leading business men of
the city have taken hold of the project, and
the interest and determination they mani
fest, it is thought, guarantees the success of
the institution and protection to the mer-
chants of the city they have never before
enjoyed.
Another meeting viii be held at the city
hall Tuesday eveng, May nth, at O'clock
to hear the report of the committee and act
upon the same, to which all interested are
cordially invited to be present and assist in
carrying out the plans so auspiciously Pro-
iected

TIE PAPER CARNIVAL.
The Second Night Largely Attended.

Again the opera house was crowded with
people in attendance upoh the paper carni-
val. The second evening proved even more
Of success than the first. There were some
unimportant changes made in the arrange
ment of the hall; otherwise it was the same
as on the preceding evening" The grand
march was gone through again with some
very excellent accessions of characters and
costumes
The gallery was we'll filed with spectators.
From here it was bright and brilliant
panorama that met the eye
The floor was packed with a motley crowd
of brilliantly and richly Jattired figures.
Here Methistopheles in his suit Of red moved
arm in arm with queen; peasant girls in
CAV colored suits had for their escort a king
In regal robes; japanese lady stood talking
with western warrior; knights, her
aids and gentlemen stood gossiping
with ladies of the court: music from
Shaw's orchestra filled the air,
and over all shone the lights of the many gas
JETS adding still more to the brightness and
attractiveness of the scene.
Tha program as published was enacted
One of the most interesting features was the
Japanese wedding scene. The bridal party
consisted of the highly contracted parties,
themselves, impersonated by Mr.. l H. Het-
finger and Mrs. Busch: the brides parents,
Mr.. Payne and Miss Fisher; the grooms par
ents, Mr.. Arthur Cave ard Miss Minnie
Wakefield, of Fort Scott; brides
maids, Misses Tella Tusch, Dell
Baynum, Allie Littell, Rennetta Ross, Julia
Ross, and Miss Kate Murdock, the go
between, to whose skillfal management and
the success of the affair was
in no small degree due The costumes worn
by all the characters were very fine and
materially aided in the presentation OF the
tableau.
Tonight the carnival closes with grand
ball. So great has been the success of ohe
first and second evening that that of the last
seems an assured fact.

ITS A $50, 600 BLOCK
That will be Erected by Henry Schweiter
and Joseph Mossbaeker on East
Douglas Avenue.

As the days go by new building schemes
come to the surface. Many develop into
facts and often arrangements are about COM
pleted for commencing work before any ic-
formation concerning the same is given the
types In many places excavations have
commenced where the scheme was known
only few weeks or days ago. Business
buildings in every stage Of completion is the
every day scene.
Yesterday another building scheme was di-
vulged. The gentlemen interested
arc Messrs. Henry Schweiter and
Joseph Mossbacker. They propose
to erect brick business building
on Douglas avenue adjoining the Noble
block. It will have front Of fifty feet, one
hundred and thirty-fve feet deep and four
stories high. The front will be built Of
Chicago Anderson pressed brick trimmed
heavily with genuine terra Gotta made by
the Western Terra Gotta Works at Chicago.
The building will be heated by steam and
supplied with all the modern conveniences.
Architects Terry & Thompson are draw
ing the plans for the building. They Till be
completed in short time and work COM
menced. The block will cost near $50 600.

CHARTER WANTED.

The directors Of the Wichita Terra Cots
Lumber Company met at the office of Bird
enbaugh & Rauch on Monday at 10 o'clock
The charter applied for week ago wa;
granted by the secretary of state and for
warded to the company. The business tran
sacted was the adoption of constitution
and bylaws, the discussion of machinery to
be used and location.
Upon further investigation OF tho Terra
Gotta Lumber Companies at Chicago, Kan
sas City, ST. Paul and elsewhere, it was
found that wherever the factories are estab-
lished the demaud for the manufactured ma
terial is far beyond the supply, and is con-
stantly growing in favor. This, principally
because of its perfect fire-proof qualities and
because of its cheapness 1t costs much less
than brick, makes just as fine and
substantial wall, and for many
other seasons is more desirable for building
purposes 1t has been thoroughly tested for
several years in Chicago and other large
cities, and has given such excellent satisfac-
tion that with each years enlargement of
the works engaged in its manufacture, the
demand increases in the same ratio, so that
tions and are employing thousands of men
and are still unable TO meet their orders In
view of all this, and also in view of the fact
that Wichita is building three times as many
houses as any city of like population in the
United States, the company have decided to
enlarge upon their former plans and instead
of putting in a plant to employ thirty OF
forty men, they have decided to put up a
plant that will give work to at least one
hundred men. The company has secured
several counties for the exclusive manufac-
ture of the Terra Gotta lumber, and intend
to develop an industry that will be of no
small Importance to Wichita, both to giving
employment to large number of men, and
to stimulate building
The company some months ago thoroughly
tested the clays north, south and east of the
city, by shipping a number of barrels. of it
to Chicago and having the manufactured
article reshipped to Wichita. The expert
ment proved that the terra Gotta blocks man
ufactured from the Wichita clay are of a
superior quality, and most excellent as to
smoothness and shade
Several locations are now under considera-
tion by the directors, and none has as yet
been definitely fixed upon. Within week
or ten days the location will be decided upon.
Several offers are now being considered. In
the meanwhile, machinery is being pur-
chased
Robert NJ. Jack, builder aud contractor,
left for Chicago on Monday evening to look
after the interests Of the company and to
purchase machinery. Captain c. 7. Meyer
will join Mr.. Jack at Chicago in few days,
and the machinery will be forthwith shipped
to Wichita, and within sixty days, the com
papy assure US, it will be in running order
